Definitions

  • Bromine-based biocides have proven biocidal advantages over chlorination-dechlorination for the microbiological control of cooling waters and disinfection of waste treatment systems.
  • the water treatment industry recognizes these advantages to be cost-effective control at higher pH values, almost no loss in biocidal activity in the presence of ammonia, and effective control of bacteria, algae and mollusks.
  • a common way of introducing bromine based biocides into a water system is through the use of aqueous NaBr in conjunction with NaOCl bleach.
  • the user feeds both materials to a common point whereupon the NaOCl oxidizes the bromide ion to HOBr/OBr ⁇ .
  • This activated solution is then introduced directly into the water system to be treated.
  • the feeding of the two liquids in this fashion is necessary because the HOBr/OBr ⁇ mixture is unstable and has to be generated on-site just prior to its introduction to the water.
  • the feeding, and metering of two liquids is cumbersome, especially as the system has to be designed to allow time for the activation of bromide ion to occur.
  • Table 1 Physical Properties of Bromine and Bromine Chloride Property Bromine (Br 2 ) Bromine Chloride (BrCl) Appearance Fuming, dark-red liquid Fuming, red liquid or gas Boiling Point 59°C 5°C Vapor Pressure (25°C) 214 mm 1800 mm Corrosivity Corrodes most metals in the presence of water Corrodes most metals in the presence of water It can be seen that certain characteristics of these materials -- especially their corrosiveness, high vapor pressures and fuming tendencies -- necessitate care and skill in their handling and use.
  • BCDMH solid bromine derivatives
  • BCDMH (1,3-bromochloro-5,5-dimethylhydantoin)
  • solubility of BCDMH in water is only around 0.15%.
  • HOBr rapidly decomposes, eventually forming bromide ions.
  • the ability to store and transport these aqueous solutions is greatly limited and of questionable commercial feasibility.
  • compositions described in the patent comprise an aqueous bromine solution having from 0.01 to 100,000 parts per million by weight of bromine values wherein the molar ratio ofbromine to nitrogen present in the bromine stabilizer ranges from 2.0 to 1 to 0.5 to 1.
  • the stabilizer used is biuret, succinimide, urea, a lower aliphatic mono- or disubstituted urea containing from 2 to 4 carbon atoms in each substituent group, sulfamic acid, or an alkyl sulfonamide of the formula RSO 3 NH 2 where R is a methyl or ethyl group.
  • the solution also contains sufficient hydroxide additive to provide a pH in the solution ranging from 8 to 10, the hydroxide additive being an alkaline earth hydroxide or an alkali metal hydroxide.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 5,683,654 to Dallmier et al. discusses the preparation of aqueous alkali metal or alkaline earth metal hypobromite solutions by mixing an aqueous solution of alkali or alkaline earth metal hypochlorite with a water soluble bromide ion source to form a solution of unstabilized alkali or alkaline earth metal hypochlorite.
  • the Dallmier et al. patent teaches that much higher levels of available halogen for disinfection were attained by this approach as compared to the Goodenough et al. approach. But the Dallmier et al. patent acknowledges that in their process, the stabilization must occur quickly after the unstable NaOBr is formed.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 5,795,487 to Dallmier et al. describes a method for preparing a stabilized alkali or alkaline earth metal hypobromite solution.
  • the method comprises mixing an aqueous solution of alkali or alkaline earth metal hypochlorite having about 5-70% of available halogen as chlorine with a water-soluble bromide ion source, allowing the bromide ion source and the hypochlorite to react to form a 0.5-70 wt% aqueous solution of unstabilized alkali or alkaline earth metal hypobromite, adding to this unstabilized solution an aqueous solution of an alkali metal sulfamate in amount to provide a molar ratio of alkali metal sulfamate to alkali or alkaline earth metal hypobromite of from 0.5 to 0.7, and recovering a stabilized aqueous alkali or alkaline earth metal hypobromite solution.
  • WO 00/58532 discloses a method of making a stabilized bromine solution comprising the steps of a) combining a bromine source and a stabilizer to form a mixture, b) adding an oxidizer to the mixture, and c) adding an alkaline source to the mixture to adjust the pH of the mixture to at least 13.
  • sodium bromide is mixed with sulfamic acid and this mixture is cooled in a flask in an ice water bath. Thereafter, sodium hypochlorite solution is added. The temperature is maintained low enough so that no bubbling could be seen. Finally, a 50% sodium hydroxide solution is added in order to adjust the pH to at least 13.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 6,007,726 to Yang et al. describes the formation of stabilized bromine formulations.
  • a solution of alkali or alkaline earth metal bromide and an halogen stabilizer such as sulfamic acid is formed and adjusted to a pH of 4 to 8.
  • ozone, a peroxide, or a peracid such as peracetic acid is added to this solution.
  • the pH of the solution can then be raised to 13 or above.
  • the process is demonstrated by use of ozone from an ozonator, and it is indicated that it is important to maintain a high reaction pH and a low reaction temperature to keep the stable oxidizing bromines from thermally decomposing.
  • This invention involves a new process of forming concentrated aqueous solutions of biocidally active bromine and in so doing, provides novel concentrated aqueous solutions which are useful precursors or intermediates for the production ofbiocidal solutions containing active bromine.
  • concentrated biocidal solutions can be stored and shipped, and they can serve as articles of commerce which, in use, are mixed into the water to be treated for microbiological control.
  • the concentrated aqueous biocidal solutions are also useful in combating biofilms on surfaces contacted by water.
  • the concentrated biocidal solutions are normally diluted in the water being treated.
  • this invention provides a process of producing a concentrated liquid biocide composition, which process comprises:
  • the acidic aqueous product solution contains at least about 10 wt% of active bromine.
  • a feature of this invention is that it makes possible the formation of concentrated aqueous active biomine-containing solutions having any of a variety of desirable atom ratios of nitrogen to active bromine derived from the bromide and sulfamate anions. Typically, such ratio should be greater than about 0.93:1, and preferably greater than 1.1. In fact, it is possible to form a concentrated aqueous biocide solution having an atom ratio of nitrogen to active bromine as high as about 1.5:1 or more. Such high ratios ensure the presence in the concentrated aqueous biocide solution of a substantial excess of sulfamate anions. This in turn ensures that the solution will retain its excellent stability over long periods of time.
  • the concentrated aqueous biocide compositions are not produced by use of powerful oxidants such as ozone, peroxides, or other peroxygen compounds which are known to possess undesirable, and indeed, hazardous characteristics.
  • a preferred chlorine-containing bromide oxidant in the process of this invention is chlorine. Consequently, from the inception of their production, the concentrated aqueous biocide compositions produced in a process of this invention are and remain at all times free of added ozone, peroxide, or other peroxygen compound.
  • the process of this invention involves reaction in an acidic aqueous medium followed by increase of the pH to at least about 10.
  • the acidic aqueous medium is desirably kept at a pH in the range of 1 to 6, and more preferably in the range of 2 to 5. It is to be emphasized and clearly understood that pH excursions out of these ranges for one or more brief periods during the process can be tolerated and are within the contemplation and scope of this invention provided that the concentrated aqueous biocide solution produced from these components has an active bromine content of at least about 5 wt%, preferably at least about 7 wt%, and more preferably at least about 10 wt%.
  • alkali metal cations typically LiBr, NaBr, and/or KBr
  • alkaline earth metal bromides typically MgBr 2 and/or CaBr 2
  • chlorine is a preferred chlorine-containing bromide oxidant in the process.
  • chlorine-containing bromide oxidant is meant either (a) chlorine itself (which of course has the capability of oxidizing bromide), or (b) a compound capable of oxidizing a bromide and containing at least one chlorine atom in the moleéu1e.
  • the interaction between the bromide anions and the chlorine-containing bromide oxidant results in the formation of the active bromine species in the reaction mixture.
  • the alkali metal base used in the practice of this invention is any water-soluble basic inorganic alkali metal compound or any sparingly soluble basic inorganic alkali metal compound which interacts with water to form water-soluble alkali metal species, normally cations.
  • Suitable inorganic alkali metal bases include the carbonates, bicarbonates, oxides, hydroxides, amides, hydrides, and alcoholates, ROM, where R is a hydrocarbyl group such as alkyl, alkenyl, cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl, aryl, and aralkyl, and M is an alkali metal atom, viz., Li, Na, K, Rb, or Cs.
  • the oxides are preferred.
  • the hydroxides are particularly preferred.
  • Cs and especially Rb compounds are quite expensive, whereas Li compounds are more abundant and usually less expensive than corresponding Rb and Cs compounds.
  • alkali metal is K
  • compounds of Na are most preferred, because of their greater availability and superior cost-effectiveness.
  • oxides or hydroxides of potassium or sodium is preferred, with sodium oxide or hydroxide being more preferred, and NaOH being most preferred.
  • the alkali metal sulfamate is formed in situ by interaction between sulfamic acid and an alkali metal base such as sodium hydroxide.
  • an alkali metal base such as sodium hydroxide.
  • cations in the solution other than alkali metal cations can be the ammonium cation, alkaline earth cations, e.g ., calcium or magnesium, or cations of certain heavy metals, e.g ., iron or manganese.
  • alkali metal cations in lieu of other cations is definitely preferable.
  • the temperature of the reaction mixture is preferably not above about 50°C, and thus is typically in the range of 10 to 50°C, and more preferably is in the range of 20 to 40°C.
  • suitable departures from these temperature ranges are permissible and within the scope of this invention whenever deemed necessary or desirable, provided that neither the conduct of the process nor the character of the product is adversely affected in a material manner.
  • Produced by the process of this invention is a storage-stable concentrated liquid biocide composition which comprises water having in solution therein (i) an active bromine content of at least about 5 wt%, preferably at least about 7 wt%, and more preferably at least about 10 wt%, (ii) a sulfamate content, (iii) a chloride content, and (iv) a pH of at least about 10, preferably at least about 10.8, e.g ., a pH of at least about 12, and more preferably at least about 13. The higher the pH of these solutions, the more stable the composition.
  • the sulfamate content is such that the atom ratio of nitrogen to active bromine is greater than about 0.93:1, preferably greater than 1:1, and even as high as about 1.5:1 or more.
  • the concentrated liquid biocide composition will contain one or more water-soluble cation species derived from components used in the production process.
  • the pH of such solution is at about 10 or above, and preferably at least about 12, and more preferably at least about 13, e.g. , in the range of 12.5 to 13.5.
  • active bromine of course refers to all bromine-containing species that are capable of biocidal activity. It is generally accepted in the art that all of the bromine in the +1 oxidation state is biocidally active and is thus included in the term "active bromine.” As is well known in the art, bromine, bromine chloride, hypobromous acid, hypobromite ion, hydrogen tribromide, tribromide ion, and organo-N-brominated compounds have bromine in the +1 oxidation state. Thus these, as well as other such species to the extent they are present, constitute the active bromine content of the compositions of this invention. See, for example, U.S. 4,382,799 and U.S. 5,679,239.
  • starch-iodine titration determines all of the active bromine in a sample, regardless of what species may constitute the active bromine.
  • the usefulness and accuracy of the classical starch-iodine method for quantitative determination of bromine and many other oxidizing agents has long been known, as witness Chapter XIV of Willard-Furman, Elementary Quantitative Analysis, Third Edition, D. Van Nostrand Company, Inc., New York, Copyright 1933, 1935, 1940.
  • a typical starch-iodine titration to determine active bromine is carried out as follows: A magnetic stirrer and 50 milliliters of glacial acetic acid are placed in an iodine flask. The sample (usually about 0.2-0.5g) for which the active bromine is to be determined is weighed and added to the flask containing the acetic acid. Water (50 milliliters) and aqueous potassium iodide (15% (wt/wt); 25 milliliters) are then added to the flask. The flask is stoppered using a water seal. The solution is then stirred for fifteen minutes, after which the flask is unstoppered and the stopper and seal area are rinsed into the flask with water.
  • An automatic buret (Metrohm Limited) is filled with 0.1 normal sodium thiosulfate.
  • the solution in the iodine flask is titrated with the 0.1 normal sodium thiosulfate; when a faint yellow color is observed, one milliliter of a 1 wt% starch solution in water is added, changing the color of the solution in the flask from faint yellow to blue. Filtration with sodium thiosulfate continues until the blue color disappears.
  • the amount of active bromine is calculated using the weight of the sample and the volume of sodium thiosulfate solution titrated. Thus, the amount of active bromine in a composition of this invention, regardless of actual chemical form, can be quantitatively determined.
  • the concentrated basic solutions produced in a process of this invention are mixed or diluted with, or introduced into, additional water, which typically is the water being treated for microbiological control, so that the amount of active bromine in the water being treated for microbiological control is a microbiologically effective amount.
  • a microbiologically effective amount on a wt/wt basis in the treated water is typically in the range of 0.5 to 20 parts per million of bromine (expressed as Br 2 ) and preferably in the range of 4 to 10 parts per million of bromine (expressed as Br 2 ) in the aqueous medium being treated for biocidal and/or biofilm control.
  • Such dosages will usually suffice. However, higher dosages can be used whenever deemed necessary or desirable.
  • the various concentrated biocide solutions produced pursuant to this invention preferably, and in most cases, additionally contain dissolved chloride ion, most preferably in the presence of a stoichiometric excess relative to chloride anion, of alkali metal cation, such as sodium or potassium cations.
  • Alkali metal chloride salts have high solubilities in the aqueous medium of the concentrates formed using a process of this invention, and thus pose no problem with respect to precipitate formation during storage, transportation, or use.
  • the dissolved alkali metal chloride in the concentrated aqueous solutions produced pursuant to this invention should minimize the extent to which oxygen or air becomes dissolved in the solution, and also reduce the freezing point of the solution.
  • This invention has made it possible to produce an aqueous biocide composition that (a) is devoid or essentially devoid of bromate, and (b) since its inception has been devoid or essentially devoid of bromate.
  • devoid of bromate is meant that using the test procedure described hereinafter the level of bromate, if any, is below a detectable amount.
  • essentially devoid of bromate is meant that using the test procedure described hereinafter the presence of bromate is confirmed, but that the amount thereof is not more than 50 ppm (wt/wt).
  • bromate is a very undesirable component of aqueous systems.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 5,922,745 points out that in 1995 the United States Environmental Protection Agency published a paper identifying some health concerns relevant to bromate formation (G. Amy, et al., Water Supply, 1995 , 13(1), 157), and that in the same year animal carcinogenesis was linked to the presence of low levels of bromate in drinking water (J. K. Falwell, and G. O'Neill, Water Supply , 1995 , 13(1), 29). While some prior processing achieved reductions in the amount ofbromate formed when producing stabilized aqueous bromine-containing biocides, there has remained a need for still further reductions in the amount of bromate present in such biocides.
  • a concentrated aqueous biocide composition having an active bromine content of at least about 10 wt%, and preferably at least about 10.4 wt%, and e.g. in the range of 14.5 to 16 wt%, which is devoid or essentially devoid of bromate, and which since its inception has been devoid or essentially devoid of bromate.
  • the effective biocidal amount of active bromine in the so-treated water is typically in the range of only 0.5 to 20 parts per million of bromine (expressed as Br 2 ) and preferably in the range of 4 to 10 parts per million of bromine (expressed as Br 2 ) in the aqueous medium being treated for biocidal and/or biofilm control.
  • Br 2 parts per million of bromine
  • Br 2 parts per million of bromine
  • this invention provides a process in which A) an acidic aqueous solution comprising alkali metal cations, bromide anions, and sulfamate anions is formed, B) a source of alkali metal anions and a chlorine-containing bromide oxidant are fed into the solution of A) in proportions that keep the resultant aqueous medium acidic (i.e., below pH of 7) and that form an acidic product solution containing at least about 10 wt% of active bromine, and C) the pH of the product solution is raised to at least about 10, preferably by use of at least one water-soluble alkali metal base. It will thus be readily apparent that any of a variety of procedures and materials can be used in practicing such process.
  • one general procedure for preparing the concentrated biocide solutions when using sulfamic acid and an alkali metal bromide and chlorine involves, as a first step, forming a slurry of sulfamic acid in water. Typically the pH of this slurry is below 1 pH unit. The alkali metal bromide is preferably added at this point. A concentrated aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide, e.g. , a 50 wt% solution, is then added until the desired pH, usually and preferably at least about 1, and more preferably at least about 2, is reached. Chlorine is then added at a rate to allow dissolution and reaction with sulfamate without forming a pool of halogen on the bottom of the reactor.
  • a concentrated aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide e.g. , a 50 wt% solution
  • An alkali metal base such as aqueous sodium hydroxide (e.g ., 25 wt% to 50 wt%) is present or is co-fed to the reactor to maintain the desired pH (e.g ., desirably in the range of 1 to 6, and more preferably in the range of 2 to 5).
  • the desired pH e.g ., desirably in the range of 1 to 6, and more preferably in the range of 2 to 5.

  • Stable solutions containing as much as 26% active bromine (11.5% on an active chlorine basis) can be prepared by use of a process of this invention.
  • the analytical test procedure to be used for determining the concentration, if any, of bromate in the concentrated liquid biocide composition is an ion chromatography procedure in which UV detection is employed.
  • the equipment required for the conduct of this procedure is as follows:
  • the conditions used for the ion chromatograph are as follows: Eluent: 4.5 millimoles (mM) sodium carbonate Flow-rate 1.0 mL/minute Injection volume 50 microliter ( ⁇ L) Detector Range UV at 210 nanometers (nm)
  • the eluent is prepared by dissolving 0.4770 gram of the sodium carbonate in 1 liter of the deionized water. These are mixed well and the solution is filtered through a 0.2 IC compatible filter to degas the solution.
  • the concentrated bromate standard solution is prepared by weighing 0.1180 gram ⁇ 0.001 gram of the sodium bromate into a 100-mL volumetric flask and diluting to volume with deionized water. This produces a solution containing 1,000 micrograms per milliliter of bromate. This concentrated bromate solution should be made fresh at least weekly.
  • the bromate working standard solution is prepared by pipetting 100-microliters of the concentrated bromate standard solution into a 100-mL volumetric flask and filling the flask to volume with deionized water.

Aqueous NaOH (361 g, 50 wt%) was dropped in. The result was a light yellow solution with a pH of ⁇ 2. Additional water (172g) was added to bring the liquid level up to the pH probe in the sealed position (previously, the pH probe had been inserted through an open joint), to prevent Cl 2 or Br 2 vapor escape. Aqueous NaOH (465g, 50 wt%) was charged to the addition funnel.
